This Is Better Than Singing - Duration: 4:58.
hey friends we like to say that we are all about encouraging people towards
holiness because we're worship leaders but let me say up front that the pursuit
of holiness and obedience will never save us only the blood of Jesus and
sacrifice can do that but the running after holiness and obedience is a
crucial ingredient to the cake that is our worship if we're going to be true
worship leaders then our job isn't just to help people indulge in the icing of
singing and music but rather to lead people into the fullness of worship and
true worship involves and requires our whole lives there's a guy in the Old
Testament by the name of Saul and he was the first king of Israel Saul made a
tragic mistake in regards to worship mainly he thought that he could worship
God without fully obeying God and like a cake with no flour his worship fell flat
before God it was no good and it was worthless and even more than that it
made God angry in 1st Samuel 15 we see that God gives Saul clear instructions on
how to deal with an enemy of the people of Israel but Saul only partially obeys
those commands in short he basically obeys the parts that he likes and leaves
out the parts that he doesn't like aren't we tempted to do the same thing
all the time as we read God's Word we read his clear instructions for our
lives it's so easy to embrace the parts that we like and just reject the parts
that we don't for example it's so much easier to obey the parts of God's Word
where it command us to love others because it's culturally acceptable but
it's much harder to obey the command to give our bodies to the Lord as a living
sacrifice now when Saul is caught in his disobedience do you know what he does he
decides to appease God or try to appease God with a worship service really he's
just trying to distract God and he's trying to justify himself and make
himself feel better about his own disobedience and that's when God says
this to Saul in 1st Samuel 15:22 through 23
does the Lord take pleasure in burnt offering and sacrifices as much as an
obeying the Lord look to obey is better than sacrifice to pay attention is
better than the fat of rams for rebellion is like the sin of divination and
defiance is like wickedness and idolatry because you have rejected the word of
the Lord he has also rejected you as king animal
sacrifice rituals were the equivalent to our worship services they were the
things set aside to honor God just like our worship services animal sacrifices
were a good thing God told his people to do them just like we're told to gather
together and sing together each week but we learn in Hebrews 10:3-4
word that the blood of animals never took away sin rather it was given as a
reminder of sin Saul tried to appease God to sacrifice he wanted to disobey
and then cover it up but the blood of animals can never hide our sin
sometimes we might be tempted to use our singing and our praises to God as a way
to appease him or to cover our sin but like animal sacrifices singing praises
to God can never cover our sin only the blood of Jesus can do that obeying God
is better than animal sacrifices and in the same way obeying God is better than
our singing praises to God we simply can't worship God if we're lacking the
ingredient of obedience that doesn't mean there isn't grace every day I fail
to obey God and so do you but every day we should be pressing towards obedience
and holiness that was the difference between David and Saul David still
messed up he disobeyed God many times but the difference was that his heart
was inclined to obey God he longed to obey God so much that when he was
confronted with his sin he was completely brokenhearted over
his obedience unlike Saul David didn't try to distract God or others with his fancy
worship he didn't try to cover up his sin unlike Saul David didn't try to play
games with God David wanted to obey God with all of his heart and so when he was
caught in disobedience his heart was broken over it
we can't worship God if we aren't walking in obedience and if we're
intentionally rebelling against God's Word if we are rejecting his word no
amount of singing is going to make that right and no amount of singing is going to
make us right it might provide a temporary feeling of peace but it's a
false peace obeying is better than singing and as we'll continue to
discover together a heart bent towards obeying God enables and fuel some of our
best singing thanks for joining me today on the weekly word friends I'll see you
next week

Gabriel Is 9 Months Old! - Sarah's Official State Of The Baby Address - Duration: 10:02.
Hello everybody Gabriel and Sarah here to give you his nine months update
Gabriel turned to nine months old over the weekend, so we're gonna tell you all about this past month and what happens
So to start you off with some stats
And these are going to be 100% accurate because we went to the pediatricians office today
For his nine month appointment, and so we got official
Weights and links, so he is clocking in at twenty-one pounds and five ounces
He didn't gain too much from our last video, but that's okay. He did grow some inches finally yay
He's now twenty eight inches
So for weight he's in the 75th percentile and for height
He's in the 34th percentile, so he's sylveon a little be a little short
But as Jacob assures us the Upshaw's are tiny people
His head circumference was good. I forgot what percentile that was do you remember no his head circumference was good
And his overall
Percentile was the 90th when you combine height and weight, so he is doing good growth wise
He has five and a half teeth his two top and two bottom are fully out. He's cut one on the top
Right as well and the one on the top left is so close to cutting through so when that happens
He'll have six teeth so that's why I say five and a half
Hello
thing on your face
No L. Can't see it now
sleepingwise
got
Really bad since the last update
We are lucky if we get three hours at night
he has been fighting his bed times and
Then getting up soon for early in the mornings
Ready he lost a shoe
He's been fighting some naps too or skipping them all together, so we talked to the pediatrician about it this morning
And she gave us some good tips, so we're gonna try to implement those and see if we are successful
So we can at least get a four or five hour stretch
So we're hopeful you messed up your header
Solid food wise he's doing really good. We've started introducing more
chunkier consistencies
And he's taking those really well you came all the videos which I'm sure Jacob will pop up right here, but we've tried
caleb most recently
not a big fan beets loved beets
We did broccoli also not a big fan
Butternut squash he really likes that we I think we tried it previously, but we tried it again
And he really really liked it some new stuff
We're gonna start trying meat some protein, so we're gonna give him some chicken and see what happens
I think for the chicken we will go ahead and do the pre-made baby food because we don't want any
Salmonella risks of us making the chicken because I love Jacob, but he does not cook meat well about it
So we're gonna go ahead and trust the experts. I'm gonna try to find some organic
Not a bunch of extra chemical baby food, so if you have any suggestions. Please tell us in the comments
We are happy to get those since this is our first baby food buying experience
For his developmental
milestones
He is sitting up
so well and
can go from crawling in lane to sitting in two seconds that is a
Really, good skill he has mastered
He has started pulling up on everything
Lately he's been immediately standing in his crib, which is a little terrifying for me?
He is army crawling army crawling so fast and then every so often
He'll get up on his knees and take a few
Crawls on his knees not consistently, but he's doing really good
He loves his Walker and he can also scoot around and his Walker really really fast
he pulls up on us and on his toys and everything and
Can hold his balance, but if he pulls up on you he immediately once till I go of your hands and be independent
So I feel like
That is coming through
So I'm glad I put these shoes on him because this is a great distraction forget the toy that I brought he likes his shoes
He doesn't have too many more many more words from our last video
Still the dad Dyer the dad
in the haze
He has started this new
Yeah, I started this new sound that is really cute where he'll
Put his tongue at the roof of his mouth and kind of talk from the middle of his mouth all right
He mixed those we haven't had a chance to get it on camera yet, but I'm sure when Jacob was able to
He will share with you guys. It's really funny. He started that this weekend
We're still trying to teach him bye-bye
He'll do the bye-bye wave but not when it's time for someone to leave like randomly throughout the day you'll see him
Opening and closing his little fist
He really likes music we turn on music for I'm almost every day
And he does his really cute dancing thing where he'll go
Side to side pooping and he'll do it in this video. You know what you we don't have any music playing so maybe not
For his loves and hates he loves as evidenced by his current
state
shoelaces
strings and tags and anything little that he can chew on and play with
He loves his Walker
He likes to chase the dogs. He likes to chase us
Likes to run over the dog water ball repeatedly, and then you refill it and then he runs over it again
He likes to follow you ever you are in the house to new rooms and his Walker. He still likes his bouncer
He started in the mornings when it's early if he gets up really early. We'll put him in it. He'll like lay back
And watch TV. It's really funny. He's just chilling out in his Walker
Really loves the outdoors. He loves to be it's outside. Especially in his front-facing stroller, so he can see everything
He still loves children and loves to watch them and starting to interact with him more
He got to meet his cousin from Florida this weekend, and he loved watching her
He likes music
He likes beats
He likes the grocery store
He lights up at the grocery store
And is so friendly to everyone around if someone walks past the cart
He like stares them down until they make eye contact with him and interact with him
He says hi to all the workers there, and they say hi to him. It's really really cute
for his hates
He really hates going down for a nap when he's overtired he gets so mad
He hates when you try to look at his teeth to see if he's cut anymore. He doesn't like you messing with his teeth
Or his nose when he his nose is stuffy, and we've got to
get rid of
the
boogers
That's about all for his nine-month update. He has
Done a lot of new things and gotten a lot bigger and developed wise it
Is all over the place and getting more and more mobile so I can only imagine it gets worse from here
We're gonna be running around like crazy people trying to keep up with them
